Brian Reich, director of journalism think tank

(Dec. 8, 2008) I am the director of community and partnerships for iFOCOS, a think tank that focuses on the future of media, technology and society.  In addition, I have written a book, entitled Media Rules!, about the future of communications and media in the digital/connected age.

I think I can help to answer questions about what types of jobs are out there and what types of jobs have been scaled back.  For sure, we are focusing a lot on what jobs will there be in the future and what skills young journalists need and where can they get training (or from our perspective, what opportunities exist for them to become their own channel or bypass some of the traditional institutions of journalism to have a greater impact on the conversation).  And others.
